Transforming Security Policy Management: Staying Agile & Secure in the Cloud | Reuven Harrison, CTO, Tufin at M.Tech Security Exchange, Singapore 2016: Business agility and security across the data center and the cloud through visualization, automation and orchestration of security policies, all from a centralized console.

Attackers have embraced automation to launch attacks and expand their reach within your network. But ill intended individuals aren’t the only ones with automation in their toolkit. It’s time to fight automation with automation.

How quickly you can respond to a zero-day attack largely depends on how proactively you secure your network. When attackers engineer malware to automatically detect vulnerabilities on your network the way to prevent damage is to employ automation to respond quickly and ensure the integrity of your network.

Join Dan Rheault and Joe Schreiber, established SOC professional, for an educational webinar that will discuss best practices to:
•Secure the network through effective segmentation
•Contain risk from Zero-day attacks
•Leverage automation to respond to security incidents

Ever encounter requests from application owners that are not aligned with your change templates?
IT operations teams often experience communication gaps with application teams that may result in delays and productivity losses.

• vastly improving workflows to improve audit preparation from a previously non-auditable change process

Register now to gain amazing insight into how they have found success. We will wrap up with a live Q&A, so have your questions ready!

As enterprise networks continue to grow more complex and change before our eyes, and as security threats continue to grow in frequency and sophistication, organizations need to understand the technology trends that will be most prominent in 2018.

Traditional IT security leaders and cloud architects alike will learn about ways to reduce risk and improve business agility in the coming year. We will discuss:
•Our predictions for the trends we expect to see in 2018
•What technology shifts we predict to influence network security
•How the role of network security policy will affect these trends

VMware NSX is a visionary solution for successfully delivering a comprehensive SDN. Amid significant adoption across all industries that prioritize the scalability of the cloud with control over security, NSX has found an established place in securing the enterprise network.

The addition of NSX to the physical network and public cloud providers have complicated the effective management of the enterprise network. The Tufin Orchestration Suite™ offers a single pane of glass solution that delivers immediate insight into the current state of compliance, provides policy-driven automation including change design and provisioning across the network, and ensures the connectivity of applications during access modifications.

Join this co-sponsored webinar with Tufin and VMware to understand how your organization can fully capitalize on the SDN benefits of NSX while ensuring comprehensive network security policy management across the hybrid cloud environment.

Come along with us as we embark on the journey to policy-based automation.

Manual policy changes are time-consuming, error-prone and can lead to network vulnerabilities. Automation holds the key to reducing errors, increasing performance, and improving security and continuous compliance, but it must be approached in the right way.

Register now to learn how to automate your network security policy processes and make policy changes in minutes instead of days (or even weeks).

We will address how to:

Perform proactive risk analysis to avoid security policy violations
Increase control and support of hybrid enterprise platforms – including traditional networks and firewalls, SDN & cloud platforms
Provide automated provisioning and end-to-end orchestration for multi-vendor environments to reduce complexity and human error
Reduce time and effort required for audit readiness by up to 70% through continuous compliance and an automated audit trail
Join us. Whether your goal is to just get started, or to partially or fully automate your processes, we will show you how to plan your journey towards policy-based automation.

2017 has been another year of endless headlines featuring words like "breached," "hacked," and "cyberattack" – many of which were avoidable. Enforcing security policy across the legacy physical network is already challenging, and the addition of virtualized networks including the SDN and public cloud introduce new risks to organizations.

Join this webinar to learn how to avoid the headlines by making security policy continuously enforceable. Having served in network security roles at Wells Fargo, General Dynamics, St. Jude Medical, and the Army National Guard, Tufin's Senior Solutions Engineer, Christofer Sears, CISM, will share his insight garnered throughout 10 years of experience.

Automation is a journey that begins at the Firewall and then extends to your greater network. For the greatest results, you need to start small and build on your success.
Join us as we take you on the Automation Journey with Tufin automation expert, Ron Kehoe.
Simplifying Network Security with the Automation Journey
September 27th

The public cloud is a critical asset for enabling business agility, but the new rapid pace of cloud deployments cannot come at the expense of security. In a time when risks are regularly introduced through the diffusion of ownership of the cloud, security teams need to develop ways to identify the risks introduced to their network, understand how to measure those risks, and devise and employ risk mitigation strategies.

This Tufin-hosted webinar will feature Maurice Stabila, CISO of HARMAN International, a Fortune 500 company. Maurice is an award-winning, published, and internationally renowned leader in IT security. Attendees of this webinar will gain a better understanding of what risks are persistent in the public cloud, how your organization can measure cloud-specific risk, and gain exposure to some techniques for successfully managing cloud risk.

Join us to hear an industry expert’s approach to solving these new security problems.

Despite the rampant adoption of cloud computing, some companies are hesitant to move entirely to the public cloud. Instead, they rely on the higher degree of control of the SDN in the private cloud, or utilize a hybrid approach. While the private cloud offers more control and manageability, ensuring that applications are deployed successfully, securely, and within the parameters of compliance can pose challenges without proper visibility and the foresight for auditability.

Organizations that are using a SDN need to employ best practices at the start to ensure that they are successful in the future.

Please join members of Tufin cloud team for an informal product-agnostic discussion on how network security policy management (NSPM) solutions can ingrain best practices in deploying and managing applications in the SDN, ensure connectivity, and enforce security. Topics for discussion include how to:
•Build a zero-trust policy in the private cloud
•Ensure compliance across all access changes
•Design and deploy network segmentation efficiently
•Deploy business applications with access continuity
•Ingrain preparedness for audits
